Скачать или смотреть The Secret WW2 Weapon Made of Mirrors That Fooled the Luftwaffe

During the winter nights of World War II, Britain fought a silent battle in the sky — a battle not of bullets or bombs, but of light. This cinematic documentary tells the forgotten story of a civilian optical engineer who created one of the strangest and most ingenious defensive weapons of the war: a massive array of mirrors capable of redirecting light, distorting German flares, and misleading Luftwaffe bomber formations. While cities across England burned, this secret system quietly manipulated what enemy pilots believed they were seeing, turning empty fields into “factories,” false targets, and vast industrial zones that existed only in reflection.

But this story goes far deeper than deception. As German pathfinders improved their navigation and the night raids intensified, the mirror fields evolved into something unexpected — a lifeline for disoriented British fighter pilots returning in darkness and fog. What began as a decoy became a guiding corridor of light that brought crews home safely.

Based on true wartime strategies, declassified reports, and historical context, this episode uncovers how an engineer armed with nothing but optics and ingenuity helped protect real cities, saved countless lives, and reshaped the night war over Britain. It is a chapter of WWII you have never heard — until now.
